I created this card for the StampinB #43 challenge.
Also, to welcome a new team member Vicki Dutcher. Go Vicki...your cards are always awesome.
Faith gave the challenge today to make a card with a butterfly, flower, and diecut. I got it all covered.
I punched the flower with matching paper for my dp panel, my die cut is the ribbon holder, and my butterfly is one I have been wanting to use for a while. I won it on the Midnight Madness blog (it has several most gorgeous butterflies). I stamped the butterfly twice, cut out part of the popped one.
There are some wonderful challenges over at the StampinB and some awesome card creators. Check
them out each week.

Today was the Stampin'B's day for purple -- which I love! I also like that embossed background behind your very pretty butterfly. I like what you did with the "double" wings! Thanks for playing along with us each week.

Yikes, Brenda, there's so much to look at here and appreciate. Love the gold border at the bottom and the cb folder is wonderful with those colors. Whoa, this here is one really neat card.
